Cheap drinks. £2.08 a pint. Good classic pub. Good beer garden out the back. Spacious inside with a few draughts on tap. Quick service. Unfortunately no contactless so bring cash. Locals are nice and dog friendly in the beer garden. Huge car park out the back.

Still closed (19Sept) but looks lovely???? It was being (13thJuly) renovated ready for reopening. I see scaffolding and SS brown paint. Will open any time now. Will check and report. It WAS a good pub but has been closed, dead and cold for years. I hope it opens again when the owners (SamSmiths) find a new manager.

It's been closed for over a year now. They have just finished a refurbishment but it's still borded up months later. Maybe they can't find anyone to run it?

Love this oldy worldy traditional pub on Framwellgate Front Street. Samuel Smiths ales lager and Cider. Great local pub atmosphere. Locals welcome u and u find u easily join in with the banter of the town. Landlord Excellent too. Great sense of Humour.

Has excellent atmosphere since new owners took over. Excellent beers, ciders and sprits
